[RC] Training accident opinions please OT - Jonni JewellThe trainer is taking money from you, for a service. If your mechanic had a battery fall and land on his foot while working on your car, would you pay the deductible? If you are not paying the person, then it might be different. And as far as the "risk" of wearing glasses while riding...geez, I have been riding in glasses since I was 9. When I buy them, I look for styles to fit my lifestyle, which includes riding in them. I get ones that are less likely to cut if I were to get slammed in the face by a horses head, fall off, or other goofy things that can happen while around horses. Some people are unable to wear contacts for different reasons, and some (like me) can sure not see without glasses! I see no blame as to any fault in the horse tripping, and her getting a cut. Horses are a risk. She should know that, or get in another business. And I too, would vote to find another trainer. She sounds like the type who might get "sue happy".
